I didn’t take many big camera photos in September, but something super exciting did happen! We adopted Neville Fatbottom from the SPCA in Long Beach. He fits into our family perfectly. Even Clementine loves him and is sun bathing with him right this second.
August was a big month! Evangeline turned two at the very end of it. She also started her first day of preshcool EVER on her actual birthday. Mama cried! Can’t believe baby girl is in school already. We went to Northern California to see my family and have her birthday party as well.
July was fun! We got that awesome cactus tapestry from Urban Outfitters which makes such a rad background for photos. We celebrated 4th of July at the bay in Belmont Shore. Our dear friends from Australia came to stay with us and Evangeline was, and still is, OBSESSED with their baby Ruby. For my birthday, we kept our tradition and went to Catalina!
June we spent lots of time at the bay, rings, our friends came to visit from Texas, and Evangeline’s Dedushka came to visit as well.
So many photos for May! I am already a bit nervous about making her next baby book. I spent an embarrassing amount of money on her year one book. I almost think I might have more photos for year two. Scared. May is huge. May is the month Evangeline became potty trained! She was a total rock star about the entire thing and is now rocking panties. Pretty impressed our 20 month old (now 21 months) is potty trained! My mom and aunt came to visit us in May. We also got to go to Temecula on Mother’s Day to […]
April started off with finding more wildflowers and trying to take photos of the girls. If you missed their Easter shoot, you should check it out! We played a lot outside. Mostly naked. Haha. I have decided all her meals should be eaten naked outside. Way easier clean up! Evangeline also got her first baby doll. I expect May’s blog post will have tons of photos with her and “babies,” but all I have for April is her sound asleep with him. Or is babies a her? I can’t tell!
This chunky little piece of perfection is my cousin’s baby girl Isla. I am so incredibly honored to be auntie GG! This little beauty has dark curly hair and blue eyes. Seriously want to eat her up. I took these family photos for my cousin in our backyard so Evangeline makes an appearance as well as Clementine.
The darling bunny bags were the inspiration for this shoot. Target $3 bin! Photographing these two besties was hard and hilarious. 1.5 year olds are pretty challenging and funny at the same time. During this shoot I learned Evie knew how to smile on command, which I had no idea she knew yet what smile means. Since then her smiling on command has turned into the most hilarious squint face that I am sure you will see in my next monthly blog post of her. How good is Violet’s rbf? She cracks me up with her faces. I think these […]
In March we wore matching shirts, became obsessed with her mermaid stool, practiced raising her eyebrows, showed off her maternal side by swaddling her mermaid, rocked pigtails, went to the beach with her bestie, and met her baby cousin Isla. We also went and checked out the super bloom! My friend Kate was nice enough to take the flower photos of us. My husband took the first few and all were edited by me.
So many photos for February! Evangeline’s dedushka was with us most of February and she loves having him here. He left a few days ago and she keeps asking for Ded. She helped her papa build our beautiful deck, we went to the aquarium each week, played in the pool, picked lemons and ate them, and our newest weekend tradition is the petting zoo right by our house! She loves to feed all the animals and sasses those goats around like she is their boss hahaha.
